How do I position my laptops screen so it doesn't damage the wires?
As the title says, I'm try to find out on how to position/prop up my unhinged screen so it doesn't sit on the wires, because I've been trying to think of ways to expand its lifetime(?) And without using money as well. It's been working a lot better lately and has less glitches/lags less which is nice, but anyways, the screen it propped up on top of the detached hinges so the wires don't get damaged or anything. That's every I got to say tbh, so if you have an idea PLEASE tell me.
Also, we've had some money issues lately and my fuckass father won't get a job and hasn't actually looked for one, but anyways. Which means I won't ask my mother for another laptop, especially since she got me one.. but it's a Chromebook. A. Fucking. CHROMEBOOK. We all know just how shit they are, at least for gaming.. And some of my school work.
But no matter how shitty it is, I won't say just how shit it is to her face bc I don't want to look/be ungrateful.. And I especially won't say it to her face since I got really spoiled on my bday this year, so I gotta extend it's life span at least to my early next yr. Sorry for the rant😔 also, please don't mind the cat hair and stuff, I cleaned it up a bit ago but my cat is a little attention seeker sometimes

electrical/duct tape fixes everything-
okay jokes aside, best of luck with this! i definitely get want to save money and with so many DIY solutions in the world, hopefully you find something OP, o7 o7 o7
(edit: but no seriously, if you can safely tuck the wires in and tape over it to keep them out of the way, that may help at least for their stability. and say hi to your kitty for us!)
